Recommended items
Starting items:
- Tango and Healing Salve are basic regen requirements no matter what lane Tidehunter is placed in. They give him @@@#@@@HP(hp.com)###@### sustain and ensure he cannot be forced out of the lane by enemy harass.
- Clarity is useful for replenishing Tidehunter`s small base mana pool, as Anchor Smash does not cost a lot of mana and Gush is a powerful disable that is handy to have available at all times.
- Gauntlets of Strength and Circlet are quite expensive, but can greatly improve Tidehunter`s health pool and last-hitting power, both of which are very useful when playing in the off-lane. If playing as a safe-lane support though, such stats are not strictly needed and you should instead purchase support items such as the Animal Courier and Observer Wards, and cheaper stat items like Iron Branches.
Early game:
- Magic Stick is useful for giving Tidehunter a measure of burst regen in emergency situations. A full-charge Magic Stick can give enough mana to cast one more spell in the early game.
- Boots of Speed are critical for purchasing on Tidehunter whether in the safe- or off-lane. In the off-lane, more movement speed may be required to evade gank attempts, and in the safe-lane it may be needed to quickly position yourself to cast Gush during a gank.
- Bracer gives Tidehunter more stats, particularly Strength, increasing his tankiness.
